"He shuffles accents, physical details, and voices with the ease of a Mississippi card-shark...Five Stars! Don't miss it." - Toronto Star (2004)

Synopsis:
A RAINY NIGHT. 2:02am; and there is a sound, a strange kind of low kind of, not a familiar sound, but a very, very human sound which makes its way around the neighbourhood: through the bedroom of the bickering Joy and Eddy; across the roof of opera diva Virginia; in through the concrete wall of the basement fortress of thirteen year old Madison, aspiring malcontent; and through the mind of the drugged up, raging, young hustler Eric, who's visiting from the other side of town. Leonard leads us through the story of his last moments on earth.
